Update on Happiness Challenge

So, I'm three weeks in.  Do I feel more energy?  Maybe.  Am I happier?  I think so.

Week one was to get more sleep.  I had decided that I get more than enough sleep, but that I could make my sleep more productive by getting back into a morning and bedtime routine.  That started off well .... until we started potty training.  Now I wake up most mornings to "Mommy!  Diaper off!  Stinky Poo all over bed." To which I bolt out of bed, my hubby scoops littleA into the shower and I begin laundry.  Not the routine I was looking for :)

Week two was to get more exercise.  Such a catch-22 for CFS'ers, but I have been trying to get more within my own limits and to count things I previously wouldn't have counted (like going to get the mail).

Week three is to toss & organize.  I'm pretty good at this already and I know that a clean, organized house make me happy.  My house is beyond what can happen in a week, but I plan to make some small progress.

How are you doing?  Are you feeling happier this year?

Thanks for helping me to keep up with the Happiness Challenge, too! My life has been a whirlwind since the start of the year, so I really haven't even had a chance to think about this much, but I hope to now that things should be slowing down a bit. I can certainly use plenty of tossing and sorting!

Ah, the joys of potty training! Good luck -
